We’ll start at a bar that’s been a local favorite since the 1970s. Here you’ll try a selection of the best mussels in town with dry Basque cider. Master pouring cider from a height straight into your glass and learn all about the cultural phenomenon of “TXOTX!” This traditional stop will be your first introduction into what going out for pintxos really means in San Sebastian.
Next, you’ll dive into the fascinating world of Spain’s most famous delicacy: cured Iberian ham. We’ll introduce you to a family-run gem stocked with Basque and Spanish gourmet products. Try two of the most-renowned (and most expensive) cured hams especially chosen by our friend Sylvain. By the time we leave, you’ll have an understanding of the differences between them—and a favorite!

This is the way to see San Sebastián. Amaya took us on a leisurely walking tour of Old Town Donostia, stopping a half dozen times for wine and pintxos treats along the way, each novel and delicious. Her native knowledge of the culture made us feel the warmth and pride of the Basque locals. We left out tour full, happy and appreciative.

Sandra was our tour guide, she was so informative and fun. What a gem of a lady. Food and drink was superb, a bit more expensive than we have previously paid but so worth it. Totally recommend

Tour was ok and guide was lovely, however we did think was extremely overpriced for what it was. We soon realised glasses of wine were a couple of euros each and Pintxos c. 4/5 euros each, so over £240 for the two of us feels a bit extreme and left us very disappointed

Lots of info about the local food and wine and Jose was a great guide! 6:00 was a good time to book because it was enough food for dinner and It even included the infamous cheesecake spot!

Exceptional food tour. I'd recommend going the first day to learn and understand the pinxtos cultural. The tour was very knowledgable and plenty of stops for food and drinks.
